Cosmetic Procedures

We use the MedLite® ND: YAG laser for tattoo and sun spot removal. Considered the “gold standard” among many physicians, this laser specifically targets and destroys lentigos (sun spots), tattoos, and other pigmented lesions without affecting the normal surrounding skin. Additionally, the MedLite laser offers multiple wavelengths – making it effective for a full-color spectrum and allowing for more customized results.

Sclerotherapy is a medical procedure used to eliminate varicose veins and spider veins. Sclerotherapy involves an injection of a solution (generally a salt solution) directly into the vein. The solution irritates the lining of the blood vessel, causing it to swell and stick together, and the blood to clot. Over time, the vessel turns into scar tissue that fades from view.

For smaller spider veins or broken blood vessels, laser ablation can be an effective alternative. A laser beam gently targets the selected area with a brief burst of light, destroying the blood vessels. Both sclerotherapy and laser procedures are effective, simple, and are relatively painless, and involve little to no recovery time.
